How to Chop Entire Trees and Clear Leaves Automatically

With the Definitive Tree Capitator Addon active in your world, you can fell entire trees at once instead of breaking every wood block individually.

Felling a Tree

1. Equip any supported axe (a standard vanilla axe or a configured custom axe from another addon).

2. Walk up to any tree trunk in your world.

3. Break a single wood block on the tree.

When that single block breaks, the rest of the connected tree trunk will collapse at the same time. In the latest version of the addon, breaking the tree also clears the leaves automatically, preventing floating treetops from staying behind after you harvest the wood.

Using the Crouch-Interact Ability

In addition to standard chopping, the addon includes a secondary tree-clearing action triggered through interaction rather than mining:

1. Hold your vanilla or custom axe in your main hand.

2. Press and hold the crouch button (sneak).

3. While crouching, interact with (right-click, tap, or use the left trigger on) the wood block of the tree.

This secondary action works with both vanilla axes and supported custom axes from other addons, giving you an alternative way to trigger the addon's wood-clearing mechanic on demand.
